Description

자동차의 냉각수 감지장치Automotive coolant detector

본 고안은 자동차 엔진을 수냉식으로 냉각시키기 위해 사용되는 냉각수 감지 장치에 관한 것으로, 특히 냉각수의 보충시기를 자동적으로 알리어줄 수 있도록 한 자동차의 냉각수 감지장치에 관한것이다.The present invention relates to a coolant detection device used to cool an automobile engine by water cooling, and more particularly, to a coolant detection device for a vehicle that can automatically notify the replenishment time of the coolant.

자동차 엔진을 냉각시키는 것을 보면 통상 열매체로 냉각수를 사용하여 수냉방식으로 목적하는 냉각을 이루고 있다. 그러한 수냉식의 냉각시스템을 보면 대략 자동차 엔진의 주위벽내에 수실을 구비하여 냉각수를 충진시키고, 이 충진된 냉각수으로 엔진의 발열을 흡수하여 자동차 전면에 구비시킨 열교환기에서 방열시키며 목적하는 열교환을 이루어 엔진이 과열되는 것을 방지케 하고 있다.In the case of cooling an automobile engine, it is common to achieve the desired cooling by a water cooling method using cooling water as a heat medium. In such a water-cooled cooling system, a water chamber is provided in a peripheral wall of an automobile engine to fill a cooling water, and the filled cooling water absorbs heat generated by the engine to radiate heat from a heat exchanger provided at the front of the vehicle, thereby achieving the desired heat exchange. This prevents overheating.

그런데 이러한 수냉식의 냉각시스템에서 냉각수의 유무확인은 자동차 엔진실내에 설치되는 보충수통의 냉각수 수위를 운전자가 직접 시각적으로 확인하고 있어 그 냉각수의 사용여부를 확인하는 것이 용이하지 않았고, 특히 초보운전자의 경우에는 부주위로 냉각수 유무를 확인하지 못하고 보충시기를 놓치어 엔진의 과열발생은 물로, 엔진의 파손을 초래하는등 안전사고가 발생하고 있었다.However, in the water-cooled cooling system, it is not easy to check whether the coolant level is used because the driver visually checks the coolant level of the supplementary water tank installed in the engine compartment of the car. There was a safety accident such as overheating of the engine caused by water and damage to the engine due to lack of replenishment time without checking the presence of coolant in the surrounding area.

본 고안은 상기와 같은 사정을 고려하여 이루어진 것으로, 그 목적은 냉각수회류관로내에 송수압에 의해 구동하는 감지수단을 구비하여 냉가수의 보충시기를 운전자에게 자동적으로 알릴 수 있도록한 자동차의 냉각수 감지장치를 제공하는 것이다.The present invention has been made in consideration of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a cooling water detecting apparatus for a vehicle to automatically notify the driver of the replenishment time of cold water by providing a sensing means driven by water pressure in the cooling water return line. To provide.

이러한 본 고안의 목적은 자동차의 엔진을 수냉방식으로 냉각시키기 위해 사용되는 냉각수의 유무를 알릴 수 있게한 자동차 냉각수 감지장치를 제공함에 의해 달성되게 되는데, 이 감지장치는 냉약시스템의 냉각수 회류관로 적당한 위치에 냉각수의 송수압에 의해 구동하며 관로내의 송수압이 저하시 접속되어 냉각수의 보충시기를 알리는 감지수단을 구비하고 있다. 따라서 별도의 냉각수 유무확인을 필요로 하지 않고 보충시기를 자동적으로 알리어 주게 된다.This object of the present invention is achieved by providing a vehicle coolant detection device that can indicate the presence or absence of the coolant used to cool the engine of the car by water cooling method, which is a suitable position as the coolant return pipe of the refrigerant system It is driven by the water supply pressure of the cooling water, and is connected when the water supply pressure in the conduit drops, and is provided with a sensing means for notifying the timing of replenishment of the cooling water. Therefore, it does not need to check whether there is a separate coolant and automatically informs the replenishment time.

다음 본 고안의 실시예를 도면에 의거하여 구체적으로 설명하겠다. 도 1에는 본 고안에 다른 냉각수 감지장치가 구비된 냉각시스템의 냉각수 순환도가 도시되어 있다.Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. 1 shows a cooling water circulation diagram of a cooling system equipped with another cooling water detection device according to the present invention.

본 고안은 엔진(100)의 주벽에 구비되는 수실(110)과 자동차 전면에 설치되는 공냉식의 열교환기(200)의 사이를 회류관로(300)로 연결시키고 냉각수를 워터펌프(500)에 의해 강제적으로 순환되게 하고, 이렇게 순환되는 냉각수의 회류관로(300)내 적당한 위치에 감지수단(400)이 설치될 것이다.The present invention is connected between the water chamber 110 provided on the circumferential wall of the engine 100 and the air-cooled heat exchanger 200 installed on the front of the vehicle by a flow passage 300 and forcibly cooling the water by the water pump 500. Sensing means 400 will be installed at an appropriate position in the circulating flow path 300 of the coolant circulated in this way.

도 2에는 감지수단(400)의 구조에 대해 상세히 도시되어 있다. 즉 감지수단(400)은 회류관로(300)내 주벽에 일단을 지축으로 자유로이 회전되게 설치되어 냉각수의 수압에 의해 유동하는 가동대(410)와, 이의 가동대(410) 회전반경내에 설치되는 근접센서(420)로 구성되어 있다. 이때 근접센서(420)는 가동대(410)의 지축직하부에서 냉각수 송수 진행방향의 입수측에 위치하고 있다.2 shows the structure of the sensing means 400 in detail. That is, the sensing means 400 is installed on the circumferential wall 300 in the circumferential wall 300 so as to freely rotate at one end thereof, and is movable table 410 which flows by the hydraulic pressure of the cooling water, and the proximity table installed within the rotating radius of the movable table 410. It consists of a sensor 420. At this time, the proximity sensor 420 is located on the inlet side of the coolant water transmission direction in the direct axis of the movable table 410.

그러면 도 2를 참조하여 본 고안 감지장치의 작동에 관해 상세히 설명하겠다. 본 고안은 냉각수가 정상수위, 즉 냉각 시스템에 냉각수가 충분히 충진되어 있으면 그 회류관로(300)내에 회류되는 냉각수의 송수압이 작용하여 감지수단(400)의 가동대(410)는 실선으로 표시한 바와같이 근접스위치(420)으로부터 이탈되어 있다.Next, the operation of the inventive device will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 2. According to the present invention, when the coolant is sufficiently filled with the normal water, that is, the cooling system, the water pressure of the coolant flowing in the circulating path 300 acts, so that the movable table 410 of the sensing means 400 is indicated by a solid line. It is separated from the proximity switch 420 as shown.

그리고 냉각수의 송수압이 감소시, 즉 냉각수의 수위가 낮아져 보충이 요구될수 감지수단(400)의 가동대(410)는 냉각수의 송수압이 저감됨 동시에, 자중에 의해 실선으로 밀려나있던 상태에서 2점쇄선으로 표시한 상태로 복귀되며 근접센서(420)와 접촉되어, 그 접촉신호에 의해 운전석에 구비되어 있는 냉각수 보충지시표시부를 점등시키어 운전자가 냉약수를 보충시키게 하고 있다.When the water supply pressure of the cooling water decreases, that is, the water level of the cooling water decreases, the movable table 410 of the water detecting means 400 needs to be refilled. It returns to the state indicated by the dotted line, and comes into contact with the proximity sensor 420, and turns on the coolant replenishment instruction indicator provided in the driver's seat by the contact signal, thereby causing the driver to replenish the coolant water.

그러므로서 본 고안은 냉각수의 저장수위가 낮아질 경우, 즉 냉각수의 보충시기를 종래 자동차 엔진실에 구비되는 보충수통을 확인하던 것을 본 고안에서는 별도의 확인 없이 운전자에게 자동적으로 알리어 엔진이 과열되는 것을 완전히 예방시키고 파손등을 미연에 방지하여 안전사고를 줄일 수 있는 효과가 있다.Therefore, the present invention, when the storage water level of the coolant is lowered, that is, confirming the replenishment canisters provided in the conventional engine room of the coolant replenishment in the present invention automatically informs the driver without further confirmation that the engine is overheated completely It is effective in reducing safety accidents by preventing and preventing damages in advance.
